Update 8/18

This week our John Ibarra of El Plan De Aguavodka acknowledges the loss of Les Paul. His latest podcast is true dedication to inventor/advocate of much of the technology that makes modern music what it is. The latest episode of his podcast, No More Is Les (Paul) is John playing multi-tracked guitar with home-made pickup. The dense splatters of this piece may not have been what Les Paul intended to influence, he did make it possible.

Also this week the second episode of the latest series by the Painful Leg Injuries. CGB 2 features the debut of my latest modified Gameboy, this one uses the awesome LTC1799 Precision Oscillator that allows you to control the pitch of a Gameboy with simple pot. For more info check this great circuit bending site, getlofi.com.

Barry Seroff continues his latest series of Self-Accompaniment. This week, Barry's podcast features Ed Rosenberg's work. This track is culled from series of first takes, including a story recorded on an airplane, enjoy!

Until next week, take care.

Update 8/11

Much to be excited about this week.

First, The Painful Leg Injuries are beginning a new podcast series with CGB 1, the first part of PLI's third series of Gameboy music. This series is a collection of compositions made with the infamous Gameboy tracker software LSDJ. CGB 1 is the piece I recently performed at Game Over Videogames' Joust tournament.

Also Barry Seroff begins a new series this week, where Barry and co. will be exploring the idea of "self-accompaniment". Each week will feature one of his many co-horts trying this out starting this week with Barry himself performing A Bluish, kind of Purplish Grail (For Rhys Chatham). Barry states that this was "Improvised out of sadness for not being able to play Rhys' 'A Crimson Grail' for 200 guitars this year." Haunting and orchestral, it's quite wonderful.

And of course we have the latest from El Plan De Aguavodka. Hold Music Submission 1 is an awesome rusty anthem the likes of which we haven't really heard from John before, and it's quite incredible. It's like a strange merger of the degraded William Basinski work, if it were applied to something Belbury Poly recorded.

Until next week.

Update 8/4

This week's podcasts are now ready for download.

Starting us off is a brand new one from El Plan De Aguavodka with Uncle Beasley is a Baby Triceratops. This awesome monster of swirling feedback comes from a a circuit bent bird toy being recorded at 8 khz. It's awesome, check it out.

The Painful Leg Injuries' conclusion to the Improper Fractions series of generative compositions, lasers * lasers * lasers * lasers.

Also concluding a podcast series this week is Barry Seroff's 50th podcast with OKSRNA. Ending the Lapis series is Beauty and the Beast. Enjoy!

Until next week.
